Sorry no clips yet.

I've got the Seventy 4 dialed in with my 1960I to give me that mid gain Marshall high mid thwack while picking notes. Talk about revealing my slop.:eek::LOL:

I'm having a blast. Quite a few ways to set the pedal. Gonna play around with the mid gain stuff for now. It can get mean too though. A solid hard rawk mean.(y)

I shall wait as long as it deems necessary.
Blow the roof off Joe.

The 'Rabbit Hole' is certainly a real place and there's one for every facet of the music hobby. Our industry works hard to cultivate and promote the phenomena of tone and the blood-lust pursuit of it...making mlions of dollars along the way.

I went down a few holes along the way, and the futility and self-induced frustration taught me some sobering lessons.

After playing lots of amps and even more guitars, i just settled on the fact that what i really wanted wasn't cloth wire and bumblebees, but a well-intonated guitar that stayed in tune under all conditions.

My amp choice was even easier. A decent tube amp - around 40 watts - that would fit in the trunk of my Mustang.

The pedalboard was very cheap easy to assemble. It was literally built from reading interviews with Glenn Tipton, Max Norman, Ritchie Faulkner and George Lynch. It's incredibly simple and also very reliable.

My Jackson and my Schecter are fabulous guitars needing nothing and both stay in tune to a stunning degree of accuracy. They are always tuned to standard.

My home-built Les Paul Replica and my Von Herndon Double Neck are used for all drop tuned projects.

My blood-lust has now been refocused towards daily practice and acquiring both gigs and new musical projects.

I'm really using this gear and it makes me very happy to not be constantly ordering doo-dads for a guitar or modifying them and just concentrating on creating music, win, lose or draw.

Once i started focusing on playing, nothing else mattered and a whole new world opened up for me...without the financial distraction of Rabbit Holes to take the focus off playing.

I look back at 5 brand new Gibson's that i bought in less than 2 years and all the problems that had to be addressed with those guitars and i wonder now how i ever found the time to play!!!!

Thats like going to an all you can eat smorgasbord with all kinds of different food and only eating mac & cheese.. LOL

Just ribbing ya!

I get what your saying. A lot of tone dissatisfaction could be cured with more time practicing the guitar.
One can own dozens of amps, yet will still sound like themselves.

Yet different tones can inspire and bring out a playing style in ones self not thought to be there.

I'm glad your tone and gear satisfied! ;)
No wrong or right way here, just what works best for each of us! :dood: :dood: :dood:
 
Me, I just kind of woke up one day and was like, ya know, I used to play and do a lot more with guitar when I only had one, maybe two guitars and one, maybe two amps. And, not really even thinking about getting another guitar or amp basically - was busy using and enjoying what I had type thing. My G.A.S. pretty much disappeared after that. But, in all out honesty for me if I'm not doing something with people in person type thing with a guitar or making money gig'n - I'm good with an electric and no amp. To each there own though, as I really don't think there is a right or wrong answer/choice - it's music, man - if you like it, like what your doing/have, cool - if you don't, cool - listen to/do/get something else ;)

The thing I miss most is playing/jamming with people and gig'n out live.
Still hoping one day that might be part of my life again - see what happens...
 
I've been enjoying the snot out Guitar Rig 5! :dood:
They have a free trial of it, and got hooked on it.

A lot of gear, no space taken up in the house, no physical up keep of said gear, and its in my VST plugins!

Not knocking the real thing, just fits for me where I'm at right now.

I too though am jones to be in or form a band! No substitute for that! :dood:

(net clip of it, these are real presets you get. so if one digs it, no buyers remorse thing here.)

 
Ok. I spilled my coffee all over the inside of my microwave. Cleaned it up. I'm using another phone to record with. It's recording down the hallway about 25ft away from my 412. Not located the sweet spot yet. Still pissed about the coffee. And my thwack got compressed.

my H&H Tele is out of tune while playing. Instead of stopping I tuned on the spot. intercourse coffee.
